A Broadband Meta surface Based MIMO Antenna with High Gain and Isolation For 5G Millimeter Wave Applications

Abstract

This paper proposes a Broadband Meta surface-based MIMO Antenna with High Gain and Isolation For 5G Millimeter applications. A single antenna is transformed into an array configuration to improve gain. As a result, each MIMO antenna is made up of a 1x2 element array supplied by a concurrent feedline. A 9x6 Split Ring Resonator (SRR) elongated cell is stacked above the antenna to improve gain and eliminate the coupling effects between the MIMO components. The substrate Rogers 5880 with a thickness of 0.787mm and 1.6mm is used for the antenna and meta surface. Furthermore, antenna performance is assessed using S-parameters, MIMO characteristics, and radiation patterns. The final designed antenna supports 5G applications by embracing the mm-wave frequency spectrum at Ka-band, there is a noticeable increase in gain. In addition, once the meta surface is introduced, there is an improvement in isolation.
